Abstract

Recent attempts to employ deep learning technology for the super-resolution (SR) reconstruction of turbulence have focused chiefly on reconstructing two-dimensional (2D) slices of the three-dimensional (3D) flow fields. However, tomographic particle image velocimetry (Tomo-PIV) measurements yield 3D velocity fields. The resolutions of 3D velocity field data along three directions cannot be simultaneously enhanced using a 2D SR reconstruction model. Additionally, a 3D velocity flow field structure cannot be accurately reconstructed using a 2D model. Therefore, we present a 3D flow field SR reconstruction method (FSR-3D) based on a back-projection network. The FSR-3D model incorporates a multiscale convolutional residual block and an up-and-down projection module and establishes the mapping relationship between low-resolution features and high-resolution (HR) features through an iterative mechanism. The proposed model is validated using two experiments. First, the original velocity field is reconstructed from downsampled forced isotropic turbulence data. Second, the downsampled direct numerical simulation (DNS) data of a turbulent channel flow are used to reconstruct the HR flow field to verify the reconstruction capability of the FSR-3D model with respect to the flow field of the boundary layer. Third, Tomo-PIV measurements of the wake flow behind a circular cylinder are used to further verify the generalization ability of the model and the reconstruction effect of the measured data. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed FSR-3D model can accurately reconstruct the HR 3D velocity field. At the same time, the properties of the reconstruction results, such as their vortex structure, kinetic energy spectrum, and Reynolds stress, are closer to the DNS results than those of the 2D model. The reconstruction results of the Tomo-PIV measurement data show that the FSR-3D model has good generalization ability.
